Cleaning and Maintenance IMPORTANT! • The Manufacturer Recommended Cleaning (MRC) protocol is NOT intended to replace local Infection Prevention and Control Policy. The decision about the level of decontamination required depends not only on how the device is used, but also on the risk of the device transmitting infection or acting as a source of infection. • Best prevention practices against HAI (Hospital Acquired Infections) recommend a 2 steps process: Step 1. Removing unwanted soils from all surfaces with a cleaning agent (pathogens can use soils for harborage limiting accessibility to disinfectant agents). Step 2. Disinfecting the freshly cleaned surfaces.
MRC PROTOCOL INTENT:
• To preserve pump performance. • To remove soil, particles and chemical residue that could accumulate over time on pump surface. Soil, particles and chemical residue result from normal use and from the “disinfection protocol” developed by users at point of use. INSTRUCTIONS
• To clean the pump, wipe the external pump surface using a disposable alcohol wipe impregnated with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) 70%, to minimize pump exposure to excessive quantities of liquids. • Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) is volatile and leaves no residue upon evaporation, therefore surfaces are left dry quickly after wiping. FREQUENCY: • It is recommended to apply the MRC protocol to the pump after each disinfection sequence as a preventive measure to maintain pump performance and longevity (removal of chemical residue). • Note: Preventive maintenance also helps to maintain pump performance over time. This should be performed as recommended in the Periodic Maintenance section. 8/16 | PAT999-103EN Rev. 04
Cleaning and Maintenance • Turn off the pump before cleaning. • When fluid ingress is suspected, stop using the pump and request pump verification through maintenance to identify potential need of corrections. • Immersing the pump into liquid could cause damage to components. Do not soak or immerse any part of the pump or the pump charger into any type of liquid. • If other chemical cleaning agents are used for the “disinfection protocol / regime”, ensure to follow the manufacturer recommended cleaning to preserve pump performance, after completing the “disinfection protocol / regime”. • Do not spray or rinse cleaning solutions directly on pump surfaces or in potential liquid retention areas or open ports such as electrical connections. • Avoid using chemicals that can damage the surfaces of the instrument (for example, chlorinated solvents). • When using cleaning solutions containing chemicals (such as corrosive agents), do not use concentrated solutions and do not expose surfaces above the recommended dwell time. After application, rinse surfaces with IPA disposable wipes to eliminate chemical residue. • Do not steam, autoclave, EO (ethylene oxide) sterilize, immerse the pump or pump charger in any type of fluids, or allow fluids to enter the pump case.
Periodic maintenance is recommended every 12 months. Periodic maintenance is designed to help ensure the pump’s accuracy and detect and repair any potential inconsistencies prior to their occurence in the field. Refer to Direction for Use manual about periodic maintenance.
IP RATING The rating of the pump is IP22. This is the moisture protection rating and indicates the degree of particle and water ingress protection.

Disposal and Battery PROPER DISPOSAL When the time comes to dispose of the pump, accessories or packaging do so in the best way to minimise any negative impact on the environment. You may be able to use special recycling or disposal schemes. To find out about these contact your technical service department or local waste disposal service. Existing national or local regulations concerning waste disposal must take precedence over the above advice. Used syringe extension sets should be considered bio-hazardous and treated (handled, disposed or processed) as potentially posing significant risks of infection transmission to humans or harming the environment. Please follow any applicable national and institutional guidelines for bio-hazardous materials treatment.
